Overheard


Conversation overheard while we were out having lunch last Sunday:

Little Girl: " . . . and my stomach was hurting really bad, and it felt like I was gonna throw up, and I did throw up. Right on Mama's dress . . . "

Older Lady: What did Mama say?

Little Girl: "She didn't like it very much . . ."

I can sympathize. My youngest child threw up right on top of my head in the checkout line at Sam's, once. I didn't like it very much either.

Overheard

This past week I've been battling a sinus infection. I tried, as usual, to tough it out at first, but by Wednesday I knew I had to seek medical attention. While sitting in the room waiting on the doctor, I could hear one woman talking to another in the hallway outside my room. I have no idea who they were, but here's what the woman said:

"I know we met in a club, and I know that he doesn't go to church, but if I'd known that he didn't believe in God, I'd have never married him. After finding that out last night, I don't think this marriage is going to work."

This would be hilarious if it weren't so sad. I mean, did they talk AT ALL before they ran to the JP?
